Brain a in el Eye HOW EYE-STRAIN RETARDS STUDY.' Many students possessing superior minds oftinies fancy themselves dull because they fail in their studies. . The reason is simply this: They are afflicted with so much eyestrain that it requires nearly all the nervous force they possess to fix the eye upon their books, thereby exhausting the energy of the brain. Many students unwisely sacrifice their health in attaining an education, because of the large amount of brain-strain sustained in the close use of their eyes, thongh their vision seems excellent. This form of brain-strain is easily detected by an expert and most alwayt remedied by glasses properly adjusted. If you break your glasses don't jjond them away for repair, taking the chances of delay and mistakes.. Just bring the pieces to the office and I will do the rest. CoriHult t.-. t i c n Pree ! . OK.
